They came up with a little twist 'the nose, when you hear of a movie in some way related to the Holocaust, concentration camps and the stermineo jew. For two reasons. The first, because now the movie with this theme are many and they start too tired, as if there was anyone in the world to treat human drama. The impression is that you are looking for the easy emotion in the audience, playing the trump card of the Holocaust. The other reason is that, because of the large amount of works, now there is not much to say on the subject, without running the risk of recurrence.
Fortunately, there is still a chance, sometimes, to dust off the subject and also be able to tell something new, going to aim the camera on a little-known faces from that period. He did "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" by telling us about the Holocaust through the eyes of an innocent child (not original to tell the truth point of view, had done "Jonah Who Lived in the Whale") and now thinks that "The Reader" signed by Stephen Daldry.
"The Reader" is not just a movie related to the concentration camps, it is also a love story and is primarily a story of guilt and sin. The most interesting aspect of the film, in fact, is just that.
Hanna is guilty. It 's a former SS that has killed hundreds of people and it deserves to be condemned. But for her, it's easy to point fingers.
While Michel, within himself, carries the blame for not having done anything to save the woman he loved, by life. And then send those boxes in prison, a search for redemption, an attempt to clear, at least a bit ', the sense of guilt. Because she is so killer, but can not forget that other side of Hanna, that intimate that he has known, the timid woman who was ashamed to admit his illiteracy and loved so much literature. Can not forget it, and then tries to atone for his sins, but without success. Weighs on him the guilt of having caused the death of the woman he loves.
world as the Holocaust drama, combined and contrasted with the intimate and personal drama. The great fault to have contributed to killing of the Jews and the equally great sin of having contributed to the death of a single person. Love can go beyond a sin like that of Hanna? It was right to remain silent and condemn a murderer even though this will destroy much of your life? To condemn a person ends up condemning themselves.
And then there's the love story that occupies the first part of the film. An erotic story that lays the foundation for the conflict that will be created in the protagonist.
Excellent proof of Kate Winslet, able to wear the pain of Hanna with the coolness of a SS. Finnes quite insignificant, but one wonders why it has not been considered for nomination by the Academy (Oscar would still be excessive) David Kross in some dramatic moments like the late Heather Ledger (He, who won the statuette).
